Miller or Cobalt? Or a new server?

    Hello. On European servers there is little online. Will Miller and Cobalt be connected?
    Close one of the two and that’s it.
    You can vote on which of the two to close.
    Or the administration itself will decide.
    Or do a wipe, delete two servers, and create one new one.

    Not a bad idea especially on eu servers, help to bring the player count back up a bit. But i think a merge from cobalt to miller would be the better idea,if possible cant see the long time players liking losing 1000+hours of item progress caused by the reset

    yeah, great idea merging the eu players onto one server. but only if the laggy 3rd world ones are also moved off onto their own region servers. hit detection is trash, always was, the lag compensation algorithms are garbage. you know the dieing behind cover, bullets through wall, damage immunity and alike, falling through textures and alike. no merge can fix that, the only solutions can be either moving everybody off to their closest servers then prevent subscription to other regions servers or fixing the lag compensation ( this latter likely will never happen).

    The reason servers are not merged is due to how the servers operate. It prioritizes the location of the player. The further the player is from the server, the worse the connection. (main reason for server latency that leads to massive lag and disconnections).

    For example, as an Aussie, Emerald was often unplayable from server latency/disconnections. But once I used my VPN in east America near the server's location, I have never experienced lag or disconnection issues again.

    This isn't really a problem for most Euro servers, europe is quite small. Plenty of players play on both servers. I also wish to have merge, more players online.

    sadly... emerald is the only server having consistant alerts/ events from pop.... maybe if they advertised a little?

    Perfect idea, wipe and all new for all in europe.
